My first Queen Knife!

The Queen Cutlery Company manufactured knives in Titusville Pennsylvania for 96 years. The company opened its only factory there in 1919 and commenced to make some of the best US crafted cutlery you will find. Unfortunately, the Titusville manufacturing plant closed down in 2018.

My first Queen Knife!

Post by rea1eye »

Just picked up this Queen Doctors Knife from eBay. This makes 3 Doctors knives now
from 2 manufacturers in my collection. The fit and finish is superb. This is my first
Queen. I am sad to see they are no longer in business! They can sure make great knives.

I think this is a cocobolo wood knife made around 2002. It feels like it
has half stops too, but the movement to half stop is soft.
Correct me if any of this is bad info.

I agree. I take a very “tame” knife on days like that too.
